morsi supporters? is supporters of now mansur because if elbaredei ran for president and didn't win in the democratically elected process, why would they embrace him as the prime minister now? >> that's a very good question, but in fact, really, it's not a question of supporters of morsi at this point and supporters of the opposition. really it's a question of support for the army and the army is a powerful institution in itself and they seem to have the upper hand in terms of sheer numbers an support. the brother hohood is smaller, very well organized. they have the ability to mobilize lots of people into the street where as the opposition really doesn't have any such mechanisms, but they have the army on their side. and really, that's the deciding factor. >> all right, thanks so much. keep us abreast of all that's taking place there in cairo now that it is sundown. >>> all right. nsa leaker edward snowden, well, he could have a few countries to choose from to seek asylum. this morning, bolivia said i

we've been blamed by supporters of morsi. we've been blamed by the other side as if we are supporters of morsi. that kind of approach will do nothing to help egyptians achieve the future that they deserve. we want egypt to succeed. we want a peaceful democratic prosperous egypt. that's our interests. but to achieve that, the egyptians will have to do the work. we recognize change takes time and that a process like this is never guaranteed. there are examples in recent history of countries that are transitioned out of a military government towards a democratic government and it didn't always go in a straight line and the process was not always smooth. there will be false starts. there will be difficult days. america's democratic journey took us through some mighty struggles to perfect our union. from asian to the americas, we know that democratic transitions are measured not in months or even years, but sometimes in generations. so in the spirit of mutual interests and mutual respect, i want to be clear that america wants to b
